Summer of cops: NYPD set to use 12-hour shifts and spend nearly $100 million in overtime to secure a historic season of events, Tisch says
The NYPD plans to implement 12-hour shifts and spend approximately $92 million in overtime to secure a summer of major events including the FIFA World Cup, NYC Pride March, and Puerto Rican Day Parade. Police Commissioner Jessica Tisch emphasized the need for overtime due to New York City's status as a global target and reduced federal counterterrorism funding.
